Lahari Velu has blasted the Kannada film industry for the lack of unity and has advised everybody should come in unity when the industry is in trouble. Velu was speaking at the 'Malli' audio release function on Saturday.

'When the audio industry protested against FM stations for not airing Kannada songs, no big star came to out help. Even the music directors who are very important in the music industry did not come to our support. It was only the media who came to out support and no one else. Now that their house is on fire, they want others help. Music industry has given crores of revenue to the film industry. The Kannada film industry should not forget that' said Lahari Velu.

Velu continued saying that he his dead against dubbing and won't support dubbing. 'I don't support dubbing. I expressed my opinion because the time has come' said Velu.
